    When I saw a photo of that orange dog I immediately thought "Raven?"
    No, that dog is a Rusty or a Punkinhead or Margaret.

    Yeah, I like Margaret.
    Like Ann Margaret.

    Yay, Nancielle, that's fantastic!!

    Yes, I think a new name is a good idea, Raven is cool, but just doesn't seem right. How about Roubaix? Even slang it up and call her Ruby.

    She's a gem, either way.

    Yeah, that was my reaction too. When I saw the name I expected the picture to be that of a jet black dog. What a surprise.

    Anyway, the alternate name that she's been responding to is Chloe. I tried a few others and got no response. When we were out on a walk this morning she responded each time to her new name so I think that's what it will be.

    Chloe seems to be settling in. For some reason she won't come into the room where the computer is kept but she's chosen the doorway of that room as her bedroom .

    No pictures yet (don't have a digital camera ) but home to remedy that soon.

    I think you can see here on a thread titled "Bummed out but there may be a silver lining"

    It's the same dog right?

    Congrats! She'll need a bit to settle in, then I'm sure she'll be ready for some toys. When I first brought my shelter dog home, she slept so much for days. I think she was sleeping off the stress of being in the shelter. Can't wait to see more pics of your new friend when you get them.

    congrats! Thank you for adopting from a shelter. We have two shelter cats and each one had it's own way of adapting to life outside of a cage. They are both doing well now and play all day long.
    I love the name Chloe and apparently she does too. Good luck with your new best friend. Our two babies - Ito'san and Harley Quinn - say hello...
